Hi,
There is a newsgroup for topics specifically about the help system,
forms, cheat sheets, etc. All of those are grouped under the area of
"user assistance", and the newsgroup is eclipse.platform.ua.
I'm adding eclipse.platform.ua to the list of newsgroups so that the
thread can continue there. The committers for that area of Eclipse
monitor that newsgroup.
